Marcos Jr. is leading not because of his credentials nor his platforms, but it's because his campaign has been fueled by years of whitewashing the atrocities his family have committed over the years, branding the martial law years as the "golden age" of the Philippines, and the fact that he bares his father's name.

Strip off his name and you'll get a lying, incompetent tax evader who graces the streets with the money his family stole from the Filipino people.

I can't blame those who voted for him because of the lies he continuously feed to those who are unaware. However, those who voted for him knowing fully well what he and his family has done to this country are traitors.

That kind of betrayal is something I will never be able to forgive.

After 36 years since Filipinos ousted the dictator, Ferdinand Marcos Sr., his son, Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. is currently leading the polls and may very well soon be declared the president.

Despite the blatant electoral fraud and Marcos's overwhelming lead, my president, Leni Robredo, refuses to concede and reminds us that there is still hope for Filipinos.

She's not backing down, so neither are we.
